1. Anton Waldorp Marker
Hij was een Nederlandse kunstschilder, lithograaf en aquarellist. Waldorp begon met het schilderen van toneeldecoraties, maar na zijn 23ste wijdde hij zich geheel aan zijn eigen schilderkunst en werd een voorloper van de Haagse School. Aanvankelijk schilderde hij vooral interieurs, portretten en stadsgezichten, die hij soms 'stoffeerde' met 17e-eeuwse figuurtjes. Vanaf 1838 legde hij zich vrijwel volledig toe op het schilderen van zee- en riviergezichten, waarmee hij grote bekendheid verwierf.
Zijn werken brachten veel geld op. Zo verkocht hij een schilderij aan de koning van Pruisen voor 4000 gulden.
